Over A Cup Of Tea: A Weekend Affair

It's a lovely weekend here in my neck of the woods- cold with occasional drizzles but beautiful nevertheless because the rains have a way of making the most ordinary objects shine and look bright and new. And this is the first much-anticipated rainfall of this season. 
I had a crazy work week and it was hard for me to find time to be here. I have noticed that I blog best (and most) when I am relaxed. Is that true for you too? For me, it's something along the lines that the more relaxed I am, the more my creative side craves an outlet.  
As the weeks get busier, I am hardly home. But on Friday evenings, I greet the house with an immense feeling of warmth and I can almost feel the house putting its arms around me. So begins a weekend affair. Of enjoying the pleasures of being home.
Today in the middle of sundry weekend errands, soccer games and visits to friends and family, we found time to savor the pleasures of being home amidst all our favorite things.  To marvel at the ever-changing sunlight. Drink hot ginger chai in pretty new cups and accompanied by fresh shortbread.  Old Bollywood music ( this is soul music to me!). And lots of laughter.


How have you been? I would love to hear from you.

What a fabulous cup and teapot. I just can't stop admiring them. Right now I'm procrastinating just that bit over a picture before I begin work on it. But since I have a cold, I'm drinking ginger chai too :-)
Cheers!
